“We are committed to helping our customers succeed financially. Helping them
make payments when, where and how they want is part of that promise,” said
Peter Ho, manager of digital payments for Wells Fargo’s Consumer Financial
Services group. “Our customers lead mobile lives and their ability to pay for
things should reflect that fact. During this pilot phase with Isis, we will
test and learn with customers who want to be on the leading edge of this
technology.”
Customers with one of the more than 50 Isis Ready® smartphones available from
AT&T, T-Mobile or Verizon Wireless can receive an enhanced SIM card from their
wireless carrier and download the Isis Mobile Wallet for free from Google
Play. Customers who visit their carrier’s retail store to activate the Isis
Mobile Wallet will receive hands-on support and education from store
associates. Cardholders can use the Isis Mobile Wallet at any of the hundreds
of thousands of merchant locations nationwide that accept contactless
payments. Customers can explore local merchants at
www.paywithisis.com/where.html.
“Wells Fargo is among the most innovative brands in the country and we are
pleased to introduce Isis Mobile Wallet to their credit card customers,” said
Ryan Hughes, chief marketing officer, Isis. “We look forward to our work
together as we deliver new payment features to consumers.”
Purchases made using the Isis Mobile Wallet are protected by Wells Fargo’s
Zero Liability program, which provides cardholders with zero liability if
their Wells Fargo Credit Card is lost, stolen or used without authorization
and cardholders promptly notify Wells Fargo. Cardholders can remotely freeze
the Isis Mobile Wallet with a single call to their mobile carrier.
First Data Corporation will serve as Wells Fargo’s Trusted Service Manager to
deliver card information safely and securely onto the mobile device.
